Forums - Sales - Is PS3 going to loose this week to XBOX360 (week ending 1 March 08)

royalcaribcruiser123 on 03 March 2008

I think that the (PS3 will still outsell the xbox 360) by at least 35,000 units worldwide even with the lower numbers in Japan. Yakuza 3 which is being released March 6th should bring in decent PS3 sales for the nex two weeks after this one

 Impossible.  I don't see the PS3 outselling the PS3 any time soon.  Not until they get a price cut anyway.  And by then the PS3 will have MGS4 and GT5.  Who knows if the PS3's R2 and KZ2 shooter lineup can go up against that?  Personally I don't see the PS3 outselling the PS3 till 2009 at earliest.

I doubt it very much. Perhaps if any supply issues have been rectifyed the 360 will be 2nd in America (Wii being No1 again) but even then I doubt it will be by much and the advantage the PS3 has in Europe and Japan combined will still probably be 30k at least.

Who really gives a s**t? Silly fanboy's who feel that if there console doesnt the most something is wrong with the world. Some of you need to change the way you view gaming, its just plain silly. Honestly, I cannot see why anyone would even want to concern themselves with this.

I think to some people its just fun keeping track of console sales, comparing, etc...So to a lot of people they look forward to the weekly sales, its like a weekly compeitition, like gambling almost
Of course you have your young kids/teenagers on here that are very defensive towards their consoles and want theirs to win no matter what, this is your typical fanboy/troll, but hey, their just kids, thats how we all were...nothing you can do to change it...
so sit back, relax, and enjoy... weekly sales :D

crazy talkim trying very hard not to be a sony fanboy here, butthe ps3 willcontinure to outsell 360 week in week out, untile 360 gets aniother price drop simple as that. even then, i think ps3 will still outsell 360 simply because of blu ray and the mgs4 bundle gta iv etc.


also correct me if im wrong but i think you said xbox sells more in japan or

somethimng? thats crazy talk

 I have to agree with MatAAron, yes there are some people on here that think sales mean that their console is better than another console... but I think the majority of the members come here because the numbers themselves are interesting, to watch where each console is going.

I think the recent increase in PS3 sales in NA  has more to do with the 360 supply then Blu Ray.

Some will buy a PS3 because of the Blu Ray, but I believe more gamers are choosing the PS3 due to the 360 being in short supply.

Next week, I'm IOI's numbers in NA to show a 50% increase for the 360 and a 20% decrease for the PS3.

You can quote me on that, so let me clarify - This week, the week ending March 8th, which ioi will report next week, will show a 50% increase for the 360 and a 20% decrease for the PS3


HAHAHA OH MY GOD! WTF!?!??! HAHAHAHA

So when it helps you out its a valid point but if its against you it doesnt count.... WOW. Hypocrite
